How to get washable marker out of carpet?

Frick, why the H do they make washable markers that DON'T wash out of carpet anyway?  I tried a stain remover called Kids 'n' Pets that I bought at Walmart but the stain is still there.  Any suggestions?

    Oxiclean... I love that stuff. It got red kool aid out of my light tan (almost white) couch.

    disclaimer: there is still a TAD bit of red there, but if you don't know it happened you'd never see it.

    I LOVE kids n pets!  I am amazed that it didn't work!  That stuff gets out everything for me!  Maybe try oxyclean?

    If the Oxiclean doesn't work, my all-time favorite cleaner for carpet is called Spot Shot (orange and blue can, can find it at Target among other places). 

    It works miracles - it got toner ink out of our carpet, permanent marker off DS's shirt, etc.  LOVE it.  It's great for tough laundry stains, too (just test for color-fastness first, but I've never had it move color...)
